La0.8Sr0.2MO3+δ, (M=Mn, Fe, Cr, Co) ceramics were prepared by using solid state reaction method. All raw materials were mixed and ground using mortar. Homogenized powders were calcined at 900°C for three hour followed by grounding and uniaxial pressed at 100MPa. Compacted pellets were further pressed using cold isostatic pressing machine at 2600kg/m.s and sintered at 1300°C with heating rate 5°C/min for 4 hour. Crystal structure and phase transformation of sintered samples were obtained using X-ray diffraction. Density and porosity are measured by using Archimedes principle. The morphology of sintered samples is observed using scanning electron microscopy, while elemental analysis using the EDX.

AbstractIn this work, aluminate type phosphorescence materials were synthesized via the solid state reaction method and the photoluminescence (PL) properties, including excitation and emission bands, were investigated considering the effect of trace amounts of activator (Eu3+) and co-activator (Dy3+). The estimated thermal behavior of the samples at certain temperatures (> 1000 °C) during heat treatment was characterized by differential thermal analysis (DTA) and thermogravimetry (TG). The possible phase formation was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD). The morphological characterization of the samples was performed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The PL analysis of three samples showed maximum emission bands at around 610 nm, and additionally near 589 nm, 648 nm and 695 nm. The bands were attributed to typical transitions of the Eu3+ ions.

Polycrystalline samples of La1.8Sr0.20Cu1-yMnyO4 (0≤y≤0.15) were synthesized by solid state reaction method. The phase purity was confirmed by powder X-ray diffraction. The scanning electron microscopy was done on the La1.8Sr0.20Cu1-yMnyO4 (0≤y≤0.15) samples. The superconductivity and Transition temperature were studied by four probe resistivity temperature method. The transition temperatures were measured nearly 37 k and were unchanged on Mn doping at Cu site in La1.8Sr0.20CuO4.

The objective of this study is to investigate the effect of sintering temperature on the synthesis of SiC produced from rice husk ash (RHA) and 2B graphite pencils. The SiC was synthesized by using solid state reaction method sintered at temperatures of 750°C, 1000°C and 1200°C for 26 hours, 11.5 hours and 11.5 hours, respectively. The quantity and crystallinity level of SiC phase were measured by means of Rigaku MiniFlexII X-Ray Diffraction (XRD). The microstructure of SiC was examined by using Tescan Vega3SB Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). The XRD results showed that the concentration (wt%) of SiC phase increases with the increasing of sintering temperature. SEM results showed that the crystallinity level of SiC crystal is improving as the sintering temperature increases

(Bi2O3Fe2O3)0.8(Nb2O5)0.2 was synthesized by solid state reaction method. (Bi2O3Fe2O3)0.8(Nb2O5)0.2 was made for the investigation of X-ray diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Dielectric property. XRD pattern reveals that three phases were obtained with Bismuth Iron Niobium Oxide. SEM elicits that grain size increases with the enhancement of sintering temperature. Dielectric property decreases with the augmentation of frequency.

From the aspect of their chemical and mineralogical composition, bauxites are very complex multicomponent raw materials. The paper presents the characterization of bauxite from several different deposits: Brazil, Milići, Čitluk and Kosovo. Chemical characteristics were determined by a combination of different analytical methods: gravimetry, potentiometric titration, atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS) and UV-VIS spectrophotometry. Mineralogical composition was determined using X-ray diffraction and thermal analysis methods. Chemical and structural characterization is complemented by the results of scanning electron microscopy with EDX analysis. The information obtained was used for the assessment of the quality of investigated bauxites from the aspect of their application in the production of alumina.

In this paper, three kinds of morphologies of ZnO crystals including particle-based lotus-like, hexagonal bipod-like (dumbbell-like) and rod-based chrysanthemum-like microstructures were controllably synthesized by using simple zinc salts (Zn(CH3COO)2·2H2O, ZnSO4·7H2O and Zn(NO3)2·6H2O) and ethanolamine as raw materials in microwave-assisted aqueous solution. The crystal structure, composition and morphology of the as-prepared products are characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy dispersive X-ray spectrometry(EDX), field-emission scanning electron microscopy(FESEM). It was found that anion of zinc salt is a dominative factor in determining the morphology of the obtained ZnO crystals. The possible formation mechanism of ZnO microstructures was simply discussed.

Y2O3doped SrZrO3(SZY) powders were prepared according to a solid-state reaction method, which the raw materials contains SrCO3, ZrO2and doped with 5 mol% Y2O3. And then the powders were used to make a green crucible shape by cold isostatic pressing. After that, the crucible was used to melt with TiNi alloy in the vacuum induction furnace with biscuit firing temperature of 900°C, and sintering temperature of 1750°C. The x-ray diffraction analysis (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) were used to analysis the characterization of the Y2O3doped SrZrO3power; microstructure of the crucible at different holding time under the 1750°C and the interfacial reaction between the crucible and the TiNi alloy. The results showed that the powders of Y2O3doped SrZrO3were synthesized at 1200°C, and there was no obvious reaction layer and elements diffusion between the crucible and TiNi alloy. The ingot is easy to separate from the crucible after smelting.

ABSTRACTA kaolin deposit from Mankon (northwest Cameroon) was prospected and studied for potential applications in ceramics. Six samples were investigated with X-ray diffraction (XRD), infrared (IR) spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) to determine the mineralogical composition and with X-ray fluorescence (XRF) to determine the chemical composition and properties for ceramic applications. The main minerals in the clays are kaolinite/halloysite and anatase associated with alunite, illite, gibbsite and maghemite. The kaolin samples have abundant organic matter (4–10%) and low absorption of methylene blue (0.2–2.5 meq/100 g), while SiO2 (33.28–56.31%) and Al2O3 (19.26–35.87%) are major oxides. The particle-size distribution derived from sieving and the hydrometer method indicates that 12–38% of the samples are in the <2 μm clay fraction. The clays have low to moderate plasticity (7–21%). One sample with K-feldspar and plagioclase displays the necessary properties for red ceramic products. SEM confirmed the occurence of halloysite in sample M9. The high kaolinite/halloysite content (64–97%), associated with low Fe2O3 content (0.5–1.4%) demonstrates that five samples are suitable raw materials for white firing industrial kaolin.

Hardwood is wood from angiosperm trees. The characteristic of hardwood include flowers, endosperm within seeds and the production of fruits that contain the seeds. This paper aims to discuss the preparation and characterization of cellulose obtained from hardwood. The hardwood Merbau (Intsia bijuga) was chosen as raw material in this study. Alkaline treatment and delignification methods were used for the preparation of cellulose. Acid hydrolysis was employed to produce cellulose nanocrystal (CNC). The treated and untreated samples were characterized using x-ray diffraction (XRD) and field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM). The final product, from both trated and untreated samples were then compared.
